Woody Guthrie was born in Oklahoma and traveled this whole country
over—not by jet or motorcycle, but by boxcar, thumb, and foot. During
the journey of discovery that was his life, he composed and sang words
and music that have become a national heritage. His songs, however, are
but part of his legacy. Behind him Woody Guthrie left a remarkable
autobiography that vividly brings to life both his vibrant personality
and a vision of America we cannot afford to let die.
“Even
readers who never heard Woody or his songs will understand the current
esteem in which he’s held after reading just a few pages… Always
shockingly immediate and real, as if Woody were telling it out loud… A
book to make novelists and sociologists jealous.”
